In the palace.
Seeing how worried Lifa was, Rennes thought it was funny.
"How can a country be safe without the power of mages? For example, how do you plan to deal with the assassination unit at the border?" Rennes asked with a smile.
"That's..." Lifa had no answer.
"Do you mean I should spread the "Introduction to Magic" to the whole kingdom and form a combat-capable army as soon as possible?" Lifa suddenly understood.
"But I'm afraid I can't control the consequences that will follow!" Lifa said with worry.
"Just do it. Leave the consequences for me to deal with!" Rennes said firmly.
"Really, Lord Rennes? That'll be great. Then... I'll do it right away?" Lifa inquired tentatively.
"Go!" Rennes waved his hand.
To him, the mysterious light spots that he could get after the spread of "Introduction to Magic" were the most important.
This time, it would affect the whole kingdom, so the light spots would probably increase by a few hundred.
If that many mysterious light spots were added at once, the sea of light spots in his body might finally show some changes.
As for the problem that "Introduction to Magic" would spread to the entire continent after it was promoted to the whole kingdom, Rennes had already considered it.
How could he let others learn the things he created for free?
Of course Rennes would not give away the benefits in his hands to others for free, especially to his enemies.
Therefore, Rennes had actually made some changes to the handwritten copies of "Introduction to Magic" as well as to the original copy of the book.
He had used a special magic text in the handwritten copies. The words would gradually fade away from the paper until they completely disappear in a few days.
The handwritten copies that Rennes sold to the nobles was written in this kind of special magic text.
Barring any accidents, the books that the nobles spent 150,000 gold coins to buy should have become worthless pieces of paper.
As for the books that were distributed to entire kingdom, Rennes had added a very special spell to the book content – a memory interference spell.
The memory interference spell was literally a spell that interfered with the memories of others.
It meant that after a certain period of time, all the people who had become mage apprentices through reading the "Introduction to Magic" would forget the specific content of the book or even replace the content in their memory with something else.
After losing the accurate content, everyone's version of the book would be different, and the more they spread their version of the book, the more the content of the book would deviate from the real one.
Perhaps other countries might gain tens of thousands of mage apprentices in the early stages when not much of the book's content was lost yet.
It was unavoidable. But compared to what the Noah Kingdom gained, it would be an acceptable loss.
Following Lifa's back as she left the hall, Rennes' eyes were filled with anticipation.
"I wonder how many mysterious light spots will be added this time. I'm really looking forward to it!"
With Rennes' guarantee, Lifa no longer had any worries in executing the plan.
The "Introduction to Magic" spread like wildfire throughout the kingdom.
In just a few days, people started advancing to mage apprentices one after another.
The number of mage apprentices in the Noah Kingdom soared. In just one day, the number increased by nearly 200,000.
The news rushed out of the borders of the kingdom like a tsunami and swept across other countries.
Originally, the neighboring countries had planned to just stand aside and watch the show, waiting for the Noah Kingdom to embarrass themselves.
But now, the result made all of them go pale with fright. An impossible method like that actually existed.
If everyone could become a mage apprentice and eventually, a mage, the impact this would have on the entire Arnold continent was, without a doubt, unimaginable.
The balance of the Arnold magic continent would be broken. In the next few decades, they might see the emergence of a large number of Archmages.
Thus, the Noah Kingdom instantly attracted the gazes of the entire continent.
Because the method was made public, it was no secret at all.
One would be able to obtain the specific method by asking any citizen in the Noah Kingdom.
Many citizens of the Noah Kingdom chose to keep the method a secret, but there were also a small number of people who had leaked it, enticed by large rewards.
Three more days passed.
Sixty percent of the population of Noah Kingdom had successfully advanced to a mage apprentice.
The number of people from other countries who benefited from this had also reached around sixty thousand.
Everyone had tasted the sweetness and felt that it was only a matter of time before "Introduction to Magic" swept across the entire continent.
On the ninth day, all the people who had advanced to a mage apprentice through learning the "Introduction to Magic" discovered that their memory of the contents of the book had become fuzzy after they woke up from their sleep.
Many people discussed this with each other, and found that the contents they recited were all different from each other.
The contents became chaotic. Some people chose not to believe it and forcefully meditated according to the modified contents.
As a result, it messed up their minds and turned them into madmen.
Perhaps some people had made handwritten notes of the book, but the contents of these notes would become blurry and twisted according to the author's memories, becoming dangerous forbidden books.
This caused an uproar in the neighboring countries. They never expected this matter would come to an end before news of it had even completely spread.
In the Noah Kingdom, it was a different scene.
"Haha, I've become a Mage!"
"My head hurts. Did I not sleep well?"
"Thank you, Lord Rennes, thank you, Your Majesty The Queen!"
...
The people gathered on the streets, discussing the shocking thing that had happened to them.
For a while, the entire kingdom was immersed in a fervent discussion.
This kind of technique that could blur and distort memories was simply inconceivable. It was like a miracle.
Of course, those who had not learned the method in time were frustrated, but they did not dare to take any actions against the Noah Kingdom.
This was because the man who was rumored to have destroyed the five Archmages of the Raytheon Empire had yet to leave the Noah Kingdom.
Otherwise, considering the strength of the Noah Kingdom, the Raytheon Empire should have long had their revenge!
After a period of heated discussion, the storm gradually subsided.
The majority of the people of the Noah Kingdom had benefited.
Faced with everyone's question about the memory modification, Lifa explained that Rennes had used a forbidden-level blessing-type spell. It was an insignificant price to pay for opening up the path of magic for the kingdom.
Rennes' reputation in the Noah Kingdom soared even higher.
Even Queen Lifa's reputation was not as high.
Seeing the number of mage apprentices in the Noah Kingdom soar, after a day of discussion, Lifa and Rennes decided to build an elite army!
Ten days later.
A notification letter signed by Lifa was sent from the palace to the entire kingdom.
Currently, in the palace study, Rennes was stitting on a luxurious chair. He closed his eyes.
The "Introduction to Magic" was indeed an important event that shocked the entire continent.
It actually increased the number of mysterious light spots in his body by more than 600.
Rennes observed carefully. Countless mysterious light spots were stuck together, becoming like a sea of stars.
The power contained within was hard to estimate, even if he used his own power as a nine-star Archmage as reference.
Because, in front of this power, it was insignificant.
Observing the astonishing changes happening in his body, Rennes smiled happily.
